NORMAL, Ill. – Illinois State gymnastics head coach Bob Conkling announced the signing of two gymnasts to his program Thursday, with the additions of Jercy Koliego (Lawrenceville, Georgia) and Mia LeBlanc (Merrimack, New Hampshire) during the national signing period.

"I'm very excited to have Jercy and Mia join our team next year," ISU head coach Bob Conkling said. "Both gymnasts are strong all-arounders and I feel they bring the kind of strengths we will be lacking after this current class of seniors graduate.  Their potential, big skills, power, and talent will be fun to watch grow and mature during their Redbird careers."
